TABLE 4

Expression levels and [3H]diprenorphine binding affinity of hMOP-Gi1αC351I fusion proteins

Data represent means ± S.E.M. from n = 3 experiments performed in triplicate on different membrane preparations. Statistics were performed using one-way ANOVA on Bmax and pKd numbers.

Construct Bmax pKd

hMOP-Gi1αC351I 1217 ± 72 9.47 ± 0.08
hMOPV169E, V173D-Gi1αC351I 901 ± 110 9.39 ± 0.17
hMOP-Gi1αG202A, C351I 1251 ± 20 9.52 ± 0.08
hMOPV169E, V173D-Gi1αC351I + hMOP-Gi1αG202A, C351I 1285 ± 120 9.56 ± 0.10
